In his address, President Nguyen Xuan Phuc said building an e-court is inevitable meeting social development trends. He said the project should clarify cases for in-person and online judgement to avoid the abuse of IT for violating human rights and citizen rights. A roadmap for law revisions should be introduced so that e-court will be applied in Vietnam by 2025.
In regard to the building of the Law on Justice for Minors, the President said 9 ASEAN countries have adopted the Law on Justice for Minors and Vietnam needs to adopt this law soon to strengthen the protection of child rights.
